iRobot Braava jet 240 Mopping Robot

Most of us know about the benefits to using a robotic (i.e. self-cleaning) vacuum, am I right? It can save us time, take a chore we hate doing off our hands and let's us continue to enjoy a nice clean floor. But what about hard wood floors? Sure, some robotic vacuums can pick up dirt and debris off of them, but what about mopping? Well, the iRobot Braava Jet upgrade, the Braava Jet 240, is going to do just that. It tackles dirt and stains, even in hard-to-reach places, like under you kitchen cabinets and around the toilets.

Also, depending on the cleaning pad that you attach, the robot will configure the mode to either wet mopping, damp sweeping, or dry sweeping, so you don't need to transfer your iRobot vacuum to the kitchen first, just leave each little robot helper in their own spaces. Another cool feature is this little guy cares for your sensitive furniture legs by identifying obstacles, slowing down in speed while approaching them and will gently circle your furniture legs for a thorough clean that doesn't damage.

Best Features:

No need to touch the dirt; eject button will automatically release dirty pads into the trash bin

Suitable for hardwood, tile, and stone-tiled floors

With precision jet spray and vibrating cleaning head for coffee and soda stains
